Under that big blue cover is the HDMI cable and the standard North American outlet adapter. Take off the slip cover and the box flips open, showing the small device.Īfter picking up the device and the cover, it reveals three outlet adapters for various regions. The phrase, “Play all your steam games on your TV,” is a very misleading tagline which I will talk about in a moment. The slip cover shows a small diagram of how the stream is suppose to work.

Nice relaxing blue slip cover over a darker blue box. Here is the front cover of the box for the Steam Link. I’ll give a review on how well the device works after some unboxing photos.

I opted to skip out on purchasing the Steam Controller, since Steam Link is compatible with the Xbox 360 wired and wireless controllers. The Steam Link is an affordable streaming device that allows you to plug into any HDTV or monitor and play your favorite PC games in Big Picture mode. I didn’t purchase mine until it was available to the general public on November 10th, however. The Steam Link was actually released a couple months ago in limited quantity to those that pre-ordered it. The Steam Link has finally been released, after many delays, along with the Steam Machine to usher in a new era of PC gaming.
